Status

The term provision is used to describe a definable element in a piece of legislation that has legislative effect – such as a Part, Chapter or section. A version of a provision is prospective either:

  1. where the provision (Part, Chapter or section) has never come into force or;
  2. where the text of the provision is subject to change, but no date has yet been appointed by the appropriate person or body for those changes to come into force.

Commencement Orders listed in the ‘Changes to Legislation’ box as not yet applied may bring this prospective version into force.

This section has no associated Explanatory Notes

(d)a search result which—

(i)relates to a search of the assignations record carried out by means of a search facility provided by the Keeper,

(e)the issue, under section 35, of an extract which is not a true extract,

(f)an application being accepted or rejected in error,

(g)an attempt to make an application, which the Keeper would otherwise have accepted, failing as a result of an error in the system the Keeper has for accepting applications, or

(h)applications being dealt with otherwise than in the order in which they are received.

(2)But the Keeper has no liability under subsection (1)

(a)in so far as the person’s loss could have been avoided had the person taken measures which it would have been reasonable for the person to take,

(b)in so far as the person’s loss was not reasonably foreseeable, or

(c)for non-patrimonial loss.

(3)For the avoidance of doubt, an inaccuracy in information included in an entry in the assignations record when that entry is made up under section 25(1)(a) or corrected under section 29 does not fall within subsection (1)(a) to the extent that the Keeper—

(a)has been misled into making the inaccuracy, and

(b)reasonably believed the information to be accurate.

(4)For the purposes of subsection (3), the circumstances where the Keeper is entitled to reasonably believe information to be accurate include those where it is provided—
